Aphasia, a devastating disorder stemming from brain damage, impairs a person's capacity to comprehend or convey speech. While aphasia can be permanent in some cases, others may experience spontaneous or treatment-induced recovery of their language abilities. This comprehensive monograph comprises four chapters, each offering detailed insights into the disorder and exploring diverse treatment approaches.
Chapter One delves into the role of non-invasive brain stimulation in studying phonological, syntactic, and semantic language processing, as well as the growing interest in the interplay between language and motor systems. Chapter Two explores linguistically focused intensive group therapy, specifically addressing the unique requirements of adolescents and young adults with acquired aphasia. Chapter Three presents a case study of a patient with post-traumatic aphasia, shedding light on their challenges and progress. Chapter Four delves into subcortical aphasia, a language disorder caused by injuries in subcortical areas such as the basal ganglia, white matter tracts, and thalamus, distinct from injuries in cortical language areas like Wernicke's and Broca's areas.
By providing a comprehensive exploration of aphasia, its causes, effects, and treatment options, this monograph aims to enhance understanding and support for individuals affected by this debilitating disorder.
